1% For The P***t
Since 1987, MEC has given in excess of $9 million to Canadian environmental projects through our grant programs. Now we've joined 1% For The P***t, which commits us to an annual donation of 1% of our gross sales. That translates to more giving than ever – an estimated $2 million in 2007 alone. By becoming a 1% For The P***t member, we're hoping to help set a new standard for environmental corporate giving in Canada. |
